Acacias for All
Acacias for All is a social enterprise that identifies, trains and supports women producers in arid and semi-arid areas in the planting of agro-ecological plots.
Acacias for All also manages a commercial enterprise that works with women-led cooperatives to source raw and finished products under fair trade principles.
Farmers are organized into cooperatives and encouraged to plant crops more suited to the changing environment, in addition to olives and almonds. Farmers are encouraged to use new technologies for water treatment, along with natural products and fertilizers rather than pesticides.
